as title.

maybe a daft question as i know quite a few use them but is there any problems getting through the sva using webber twin 40's ?

i was going to use my standard carb to get through the test and then change to the 40's after test but then realised this is going to mean getting a new bonnet due to all the holes!

if ppl haven't had too many probs with emissions when using them then i might just go with it.

cheers

Macspeedy got through no bother and his car hadnt been tuned properly. The regs are a lot lighter due to age of engine. We got a 98dB with a mk exhaust. If you lean out the mixture and run the engine warm enough no trouble.
Give him a U"U if you need more details

Yep, I got through with a bit of tweaking, and that was with totally wrong jets!

I realise that the point has now been made but I got mine through with 45's and no problems
